Amorim's Call Disrupts PSG's Contract Talks with Mendes
Nuno Mendes has declined Paris Saint-Germain's contract extension offers, reportedly due to a proposal from Manchester United's manager, Rúben Amorim.
Nuno Mendes, the Portuguese left-back, has rejected all contract extension offers from Paris Saint-Germain (PSG). Reports from France suggest that Mendes believes the proposed salary does not reflect his value, leading him to consider leaving the Parisian club.
Adding to the complexity, sources indicate that Rúben Amorim, the manager of Manchester United, has directly contacted Mendes, presenting a compelling offer. This approach is believed to be a significant factor in Mendes's hesitation to commit to PSG.
Despite these developments, PSG's management remains hopeful of retaining Mendes, whose current contract runs until 2026. They aim to reach a new agreement before the winter transfer window to prevent his departure.
Mendes has been instrumental under coach Luis Enrique, consistently starting on the left flank and contributing significantly to the team's offensive plays. This season, he has participated in 16 matches, scoring two goals and providing two assists.
